THE VERBIER CONCERTS

“I always love to play with him!” says Martha Argerich of Evgeny Kissin. Although three decades separate them in age, Martha Argerich and Evgeny Kissin are musical soulmates.

For audiences of the Verbier Festival, this treasured bond – between two of history’s greatest pianists – is no secret. Ever since their first rendezvous as duo partners in 2000 (an intimate yet earth-shaking extract from Brahms’ Souvenir de la Russie) a superlative lineage of collaboration has ensued. With this release, Verbier Festival Gold unveils a selection of stunning performances, spanning from Mozart to Milhaud, by two dear friends. Each track features breathtaking moments that are catalysed by an artistic match made in heaven.
